The true cost

[10Shooter]

Guns are like rabbits, once in a while when I open my safe, there's another one there just waiting to be shot. Only having one gun makes it so lonely.
So like I say, always buy a bigger safe than you think you need.

For me, the highest cost of getting my CHL was working my way through nearly a dozen holsters before I found one that really worked for my body type and carry style. I now have a bunch of nice holsters which get very little use and one holster that gets worn everyday. Unfortunately, getting the right holster set up is trial and error as what works for others may or may not work for you.

I don't think buying a gun should be included in the true cost of the license. That seems like including the price of your car in calculating the cost of the class if you drove there.
